How to Stop a Continuously Blinking Safety Sensor on a Raynor Garage Door

Raynor garage door openers come with the manufacturer's proprietary Protector System -- safety sensors that reverse the action of the door when they sense an obstruction. The Protector System includes a sending eye and a receiving eye. If the sensor is blinking, there is a problem somewhere in the system. You may need to try a few different procedures to determine why the light is flashing. When you hit on the correct problem, the light will stop blinking, indicating the issue is resolved.

      Reverse the black and white wires. If this doesn’t solve the problem, put them back in their original positions.

      Inspect the receiving eye sensor to make sure it’s aligned property with the sending light. Clean the eye and check that the bracket is secured to the wall.
